SUSPECTS
Recommendation•
It is recommended that the City Council
1. Approve the deposit of $10,000 i'n General Fund Ol, Index Code 055012,
from restitution payments, sales and auctions, refunds and recoveries of
drug related cash and equipment, and
2. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriations ordinance increasing
estimated receipts in General Fund O1 and appropriations in General Fund
O1, Police Department, Criminal Investigation Division, Account No.
35-41-00 from the increased revenuE~, and
3. Approve the expenditure of $10,(100 to purchase 20 ICAP cameras to be
placed at area businesses in locations with a high incidence of robbery
offenses.
Discussion
During the last two months, two robbery suspects have been identified after
being photographed "in the act". In addition to the offenses they were
arrested on, they confessed to or were identified in 17 other robberies. We
have another suspect not yet identified who has robbed 10 other stores.
Without the help of the 20 ICAP cameras w.e now have in businesses none of
these 29 robbery offenses would have been cleared.
Our clearance rate would be even higher with more cameras in other high risk
locations. Most robbery suspects are dangerous as was the one who murdered a
complainant in October 1988 while committing a robbery. Most will be sent to
the penitentiary upon conviction rather than being probated back to the
streets.
Financing
Deposit $10,000 into the General Fund O1, Index Code 055012, Miscellaneous
Income, from monies received from restitution payments to the Police
Department. Adopt a Supplemental Appropriation ordinance in the General Fund
O1, Police Department, Criminal Investigation Division, Account No. 35-41-00,
in the following index code
267062 - Other Equiprry~~~b~~~ED BY $10,000
